Two thousand three hundred and sixty seven male and female of age 40 and over in inland Farm Village G and in Pacific rocky coast Fishing Village R are investigated on stature, body weight, grasping power, upper arm circumference, skinfold thickness, serum cholesterol content, specific gravity of blood, blood pressure and urine findings. Results follow: 1. Farm villagers are smaller than fishing villagers in both stature and body weight, and have more thickset physique than the latter. 2. Males in the fishing village are superior to that in the farm village in both upper arm circumference and grasping power, though in female grasping power it is in reverse. 3. Although no difference is found in both skinfold thickness and serum cholesterol content between males of two villages, by female, farm villager are rather greater than fishing villagers in both measurements. 4. On specific gravity of blood, both male and female in the fishing village are greater than farm villagers. 5. Difference of blood pressure level is small between two villages, though the difference is found by some sex and age group assortment. By female, diastolic level is a little higher for the farm villagers than for the fishing villagers. These results seemed to be related to the difference of the habitual diet : farm villagers more depending on rice and lack in protein, fat, calcium and some vitamins.
